Common Sense in Dairy Farming Maximizes Milk Output
The article argues that successful dairy farming hinges on applying common sense, especially by mimicking the peak production period of May and June year round. It stresses palatable, balanced feed, moderate temperatures, and comfortable surroundings to sustain high milk yields and profitable returns.
Excellent calf pen setup for health and comfort
Calf pens should be near the south side of the barn to receive sunlight. Exercise yards south of the barn connected to the pens allow calves to be turned out for exercise even in cold weather and protect them from north winds. Cement floors are durable and clean but cold in winter unless covered with ample dry bedding.
Feeding Dry Cows on Roughage Before Calving
During eight to ten weeks of drying, cows need mainly roughage. Give two pounds daily of bran or oats or a mix of bran and oats with linseed meal or corn meal. Include roots or cabbage and squash. Avoid highly carbonaceous roughage and exposure to cold damp conditions to prevent garget.
Beware of Moldy Silage Dangers for Livestock
Warn farmers to remove all moldy silage when opening silage to prevent possible silage poisoning and death of livestock.
Silage Not Balanced Feed For Livestock Rations
Silage is not a balanced ration and requires supplementation with other feeds.
Poor Feeding Practices Cause Silage Losses
A systematic study shows losses from poor feeding of silage or molasses due to feeding methods or excessive dirt. The findings warn that unwise practices will yield bad results in rations and animal nutrition.
Cleanliness in Dairy Utensils and Equipment
The article stresses keeping milk pails and dairy utensils free of crevices where dirt can lodge. Cream separators and other equipment should be cleaned immediately after use to improve milk quality, ease work, and extend tool life.
Silage Pointer Impact on Dairyman's Feed
A silage pointer notes dairymen face challenges if silo clover or alfalfa fields are scarce. Shortages in feed from these sources may force smaller production or greater dependence on grain feed.
Clean Utensils for Milk Handling
The article advises keeping all utensils in contact with milk and cream clean at all times. It suggests using pails with partially covered tops to reduce contamination by about half and keep dirt and impurities out of the milk.
Safeguards In Calf Feeding When Milk Is Change
Gradual transition from whole milk to skim milk is crucial to prevent scours in calves. Increase skim milk content by small increments each day to ease the switch and protect calf health.
